Data
Protection
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data are data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., when communicating by e-mail) can have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.
SSL or TLS Encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Encrypted Payment Transactions on this Website
If there is an obligation to transmit your payment data (e.g., account number for direct debit authorization) to us after the conclusion of a fee-based contract, these data are required for payment processing.
Payment
transactions using common payment methods (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are
exclusively processed via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize
an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser
changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol
in your browser line.
In the case of encrypted communication, your payment data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Information, Blocking, Deletion
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information at any time about your stored personal data, their origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing and, if necessary, a right to correct, block or delete these data. For this purpose, as well as for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint.
Cookies
The internet pages partly use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.
Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies.” They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser on your next visit.
You can set your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. When cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.
Cookies that are necessary for carrying out the electronic communication process or for providing certain functions you desire (e.g., shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g., cookies for analyzing your browsing behavior) are stored, they are treated separately in this privacy policy.
Server Log Files
The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
- Browser type and version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Hostname of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address
This data is not combined with other data sources.
The basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.
Contact Form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact data you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions - especially retention periods - remain unaffected.
Registration on This Website
You can register on our website to use additional features on the site. We use the data entered for this purpose only for the use of the respective offer or service for which you have registered. The mandatory information requested during registration must be provided in full. Otherwise, we will reject the registration.
For important changes, such as the scope of the offer or technically necessary changes, we use the e-mail address provided during registration to inform you in this way.
The processing of the data entered during registration is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke any consent you have given at any time. An informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.
The data collected during registration will be stored by us as long as you are registered on our website and will then be deleted. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Duration of Comments

Legal
Basis
The storage of comments is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke any consent you have given at any time. An informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.
Processing of Data (Customer and Contract Data)
We collect, process, and use personal data only to the extent necessary for the establishment, content, or modification of the legal relationship (inventory data). This is done on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures. We collect, process, and use personal data about the use of our internet pages (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable the user to use the service or to bill the user.
The collected customer data will be deleted after completion of the order or termination of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.
Data Transmission upon Conclusion of Contracts for Online Shops, Dealers, and Goods Dispatch
We transmit personal data to third parties only if this is necessary in the context of contract processing, for example, to the companies entrusted with the delivery of the goods or the credit institution entrusted with the payment processing. A further transmission of the data does not take place or only if you have expressly agreed to the transmission. A transfer of your data to third parties without explicit consent, for example, for advertising purposes, does not take place.
The basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.
Google Analytics
This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies." These are text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
The storage of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize both its web offering and its advertising.
IP
Anonymization
We have activated the IP anonymization function on this website. As a result, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services related to website and internet use to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google.

Order Data Processing
We have concluded a contract with Google for order data processing and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.
On our website, we offer you the possibility to check certain inputs in address forms of our web shop for input errors in real time. This is intended to prevent problems with the delivery of the products you ordered due to incorrect information.
Furthermore, we want to ensure that your contact data for sending information about your order or for any necessary follow-up questions are valid.
For the provision of these functions, we use the service provider netzperfekt - eCommerce mit Shopware, Parkstr. 113, 24399 Arnis. The service provider processes the data exclusively according to our instructions. The legal basis for the transmission, processing, and temporary storage of the data at the service provider is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, as it is mandatory for the fulfillment of the contract or the implementation of pre-contractual measures that some of the data you enter in the input mask are checked for accuracy. The following data are processed by the service provider:
- Address (country, city, postal code, street, if applicable, house number)
- E-mail address (if not activated, please delete)
- Salutation, first name, last name, and title (if not activated, please delete)
- Phone number (if not activated, please delete)
The data are processed separately by the service provider and not merged. The requests are deleted by the service provider as soon as the status of the entered data has been determined and the storage in the web shop has been completed, but at the latest after 30 days.
